While looking at the CI I noticed that there's a couple false positives
for `case` statements that cannot be checked for exhaustiveness since my
changes, this should resolve them.

**TODO**
- [x] fixes changelog
With the new option `nimPreviewVtables`, `methods` are confined in the
same module where the type of the first parameter is defined
- [x] make it opt in after CI checks its feasibility
## In the following-up PRs
- [ ] in the following PRs, refactor code into a more efficient one
- [ ] cpp needs special treatments since it cannot embed array in light
of the preceding limits: ref
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/20977#discussion_r1035528927; we
can support cpp backends with vtable implementations later on the
comprise that uses indirect vtable access

Currently running `nimsuggest`/`check` on this code causes the compiler
to raise an exception
```nim
type
Test = enum
A = 9.0
```
```
assertions.nim(34) raiseAssert
Error: unhandled exception: int128.nim(69, 11) `arg.sdata(3) == 0` out of range [AssertionDefect]
```
Issue was the compiler still trying to get the ordinal value even if it
wasn't an ordinal
Currently when using `use` with nimsuggest on an enum field, it doesn't
return the definition of the field.
Breaks renaming in IDEs since it will replace all the usages, but not
the declaration
fixes#22286
ref https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/10642
For backwards compatibilities, we might need to keep the changes under a
preview compiler flag. Let's see how many packags it break.
**TODO** in the following PRs
- [ ] Turn the `var T` destructors warning into an error with
`nimPreviewNonVarDestructor`

When it is specified, the nimsuggest instance monitors whether this
process is still alive. In case it's found to be dead, nimsuggest shuts
itself down. Currently only implemented on POSIX and Windows platforms.
The switch is silently ignored on other platforms. Note that the Nim
language server should still try to shut down its child nimsuggest
processes. This switch just adds extra protection against crashing Nim
language server and gets rid of the remaining nimsuggest processes,
which consume memory and system resources.
Currently the suggestions create a lot of noise when creating enum
fields. I don't see any way of a macro creating fields (when called
inside an enum) so it should be safe to not show suggestions

…var/let symbols
fixes#22939fixes#16890
Besides, it was applied to let/const/var with pragmas, now it is
universally applied.
```nim
{.push exportc.}
proc foo =
let bar = 12
echo bar
{.pop.}
```
For example, the `bar` variable will be affected by `exportc`.
Since nimsuggest now has a protocol version support detection via
`--info:protocolVer`, the InlayHints feature can be moved to protocol
V4. This way, the Nim language server can detect the nimsuggest version
and avoid sending unsupported `InlayHints` commands to older nimsuggest
versions. Related nim language server PR:
https://github.com/nim-lang/langserver/pull/60
In this PR, the following changes were made:
1. Replaced `raise newException(OSError, osErrorMsg(errno))` in batches
with `raiseOSError(errcode)`.
2. Replaced `newException(OSError, osErrorMsg(errno))` in batches with
`newOSError(errcode)`.
There are still some places that have not been replaced. After checking,
they are not system errors in the traditional sense.
```nim
proc dlclose(lib: LibHandle) =
raise newException(OSError, "dlclose not implemented on Nintendo Switch!")
```
```nim
if not fileExists(result) and not dirExists(result):
# consider using: `raiseOSError(osLastError(), result)`
raise newException(OSError, "file '" & result & "' does not exist")
```
```nim
proc paramStr*(i: int): string =
raise newException(OSError, "paramStr is not implemented on Genode")
```
This is a small improvement on top of PR #22924, which documents the new
'j' format specifier for Complex numbers. In addition to that it moves
the handling of the j specifier into the function that actually
implements it (formatValueAsComplexNumber), which seems a little
cleaner.

Refactored the way nimsuggest checks for protocol version 3. Instead of
checking for version 3 exactly, it now checks for version 3 or later.
This way, once a version 4 is introduced, it will use version 3 as a
base line, and then extra changes to the protocol can be added on top.
No functional changes are introduced in this commit.
`--info:protocolVer` returns the highest nimsuggest protocol version
that is supported (currently, it's version 3).
`--info:nimVer` returns the Nim compiler version that nimsuggest uses
internally.
Note that you can obtain the Nim compiler version via `nimsuggest -v`,
but that requires parsing the output, which looks like this:
```
Nim Compiler Version 2.1.1 [Linux: amd64]
Compiled at 2023-11-14
Copyright (c) 2006-2023 by Andreas Rumpf
git hash: 47ddfeca5247dce992becd734d1ae44e621207b8
active boot switches: -d:release -d:danger --gc:markAndSweep
```
`--info:nimVer` will return just:
```
2.1.1
```
Before this change strformat used the generic formatValue function for
Complex numbers. This meant that it was not possible to control the
format of the real and imaginary components of the complex numbers.
With this change this now works:
```nim
import std/[complex, strformat]
let c = complex(1.05000001, -2.000003)
echo &"{c:g}"
# You now get: (1.05, -2)
# while before you'd get a ValueError exception (invalid type in format string for string, expected 's', but got g)
```
The only small drawback of this change is that I had to import complex
from strformat. I hope that is not a problem.

Fixes the assertion defect that happens when using `jsondoc --stdout`
(There is no outfile since its just stdout)
```
Error: unhandled exception: options.nim(732, 3) `not conf.outFile.isEmpty` [AssertionDefect]
```
Also makes the output easier to parse by ending each module output with
a new line.
Per manual, `panics:on` affects _only_ `Defect`:s - thus `sysFatal`
should not redirect any other exceptions.
Also, when `sysFatal` is used in `nimPanics` mode, it should use regular
exception handling pipeline to ensure exception hooks are called
consistently for all raised defects.
fixes#22898
In these cases, the tables/sets are clears or elements are deleted from
them. It's reasonable to suppress warnings because the value is not
accessed anymore, which means it's safe to ignore the warnings.
This adds inlay hints support to nimsuggest. It adds a new command to
nimsuggest, called 'inlayHints'.
Currently, it provides type information to 'var' and 'let' variables. In
the future, inlay hints can also be added for 'const' and for function
parameters. The protocol also reserves space for a tooltip field, which
is not used, yet, but support for it can be added in the future, without
further changing the protocol.
The change includes refactoring to allow the 'inlayHints' command to
return a completely different structure, compared to the other
nimsuggest commands. This will allow other future commands to have
custom return types as well. All the previous commands return the same
structure as before, so perfect backwards compatibility is maintained.
To use this feature, an update to the nim language server, as well as
the VS code extension is needed.
